Groovy/Griffon for extensions?

Post by odaata »

Hi all,

I'm trying to create a custom set of extensions for Oxygen Editor and I was wondering, can they be created with Groovy and/or Griffon? Has anyone tried this? Can you think of any pitfalls in using these for customizing Oxygen?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts on this!
Cheers,
M

Hi,

Our API as you probably know is Java based. I remember we had discussions in the past with a developer who was successfully using Groovy to write his code. As long as this gets translated to a Java class which is inside a JAR archive, there is no problem with the approach. Groovy compiles to Java byte code so it should not matter.

Regards,
Radu
